Can you summarize the ARISE study? How are they repairing the aneurysms? When will in conclude? Sounds like you've determined the results are promising?

This is the study: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05800743?cond=ascending%20aortic%20aneurysm&term=ARISE&rank=2

It's ARISE II, not III. My bad.

The original ARISE study was very limited. I think 19 very high risk patients. These endovascular stent placements had been done in the past for patients who wouldn't survive the open surgery. The difference with the study is the device being implanted is designed for the increased pressure of blood flow closer to the heart. If your aneurysm was in the descending or abdominal aorta, they already had acceptable stents for those areas.

This link has more info about the original study and this one. It's iffy, being one of 370, to be sure. But so is an untreated 5 cm ascending aortic aneurysm.
